Backup, restore and disaster recovery — tested, not hoped for.
A backup that hasn't been tested isn't a backup. It's a hope. 60% of SMBs that suffer a major data loss close within 6 months — not because they didn't have backups, but because their backups couldn't be restored in time.
If at least three of these sound familiar, it's time to talk.
Setup-and-forget backups, never tested
No defined RPO and RTO — nobody knows how much data and how much time is acceptable to lose
Backups on the same system as production (vulnerable to ransomware)
No operational disaster recovery plan, just theoretical documents
Storage costs growing unchecked through unjustified retention
We start with a business impact analysis workshop: together with management we define, per system, the RPO (how much data you can afford to lose) and RTO (how fast it must be operational again). These numbers drive the entire design.
We design the 3-2-1-0 strategy: 3 copies of data, 2 different media, 1 off-site copy, 0 errors on verification. We use Veeam, Acronis or cloud-native solutions — choice depends on your stack.
Most importantly: we test restore. Monthly for critical systems, quarterly for the rest. We document real recovery times and adjust until we hit your target RTO. Without testing, backup is just a monthly invoice.
Business impact workshop + RPO/RTO definition + 3-2-1-0 design.
End-to-end configuration with retention policies, monitoring and alerting.
Cloud secondary site, continuous replication, quarterly tested failover runbooks.
Monthly/quarterly restore test calendar with reporting actual times vs target RTO.
Retention policies aligned to legal requirements, automated deletion after expiry.
Management workshop. Define RPO and RTO for each critical system.
3-2-1-0 architecture, technology selection, cost calculation (storage + licences + operations).
Backup configuration, retention policies, monitoring, alerting. Runbook documentation.
First full restore test within 30 days. Ongoing test calendar agreed with you.
Daily verification, monthly reports, incident escalation, continuous storage optimisation.
Real numbers, quarterly tested. Not theoretical promises.
Automatic tiering (hot/cold/archive) reduces invoices by 40-60% vs naive setups.
Documented retention and deletion policies, complete audit trail.
30 minutes — we explore what you have, what's missing and what concrete next steps look like.
